Guest Gym Class Fallout Report post Posted September 30, 2007 The National League playoff teams have four world championships combined in their histories. The American League teams have 35. Al, that's a meaningless statistic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2007 Something that hasn't gotten a lot of attention. There are quite a few off days set in the divisional series. The schedule for the NL works out for two days, an off day, two more games, an off day and game five. That means no team plays three days in a row. In fact, the Red Sox/Angels will only play once on back-to-back days. This really gives teams with shorter pitching staffs an advantage. Any team that carries more than 10 pitchers is fooling themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2007 CELLLLLL EBRATE GOOD TIMES, C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES ARE THE NATIONAL LEAGUE CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MVP JIMMY ROLLINS!!!!!!!!! THE TEAM TO BEAT! Oh man, I hope Peavy gets worked over tomorrow. Rather play the Padres than Rockies, honestly, with a tired Peavy out til Game 3. "shorter pitching staffs" Let's go with a 2-man rotation in Philadelphia...if only Cole and Kyle could alternate throwing arms every game! Sorry don't mean to come off as an annoying Damaramu but I'm just fucking excited for a post-season for the first time since I was a little kid. With a LOVEABLE team that will NOT die!!!!! For the first time in 20 years, Tom Glavine hit a pitcher with a pitch. 2nd time in 20 years he hit a batter with the bases loaded. Unreal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smues Report post Posted September 30, 2007 A one game playoff, that's just awesome. I like both teams so I guess I'm rooting for Colorado to complete the amazing finish. And despite the fact I hate them congrats to the Phillies for their own miracle comeback. I'd rather it be them than the Mets anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damn There was no World Series in 2005, but if there had been, I'd say "certainly there is parity in baseball now if these teams can fall from pennants to 72 wins in just two years."
